In December 2023, STOXX introduced the STOXX® Digital Asset Blue Chip index, which aims to track high-quality assets that represent the crypto universe today. Ladi Williams, Executive Director for Index Product Management at STOXX, discusses the index in an interview with Asset TV.

The STOXX® Europe 600 SRI index is aligned with the new ESMA guidelines on fund names. Investors, meanwhile, will have a say whether other derivatives’ underlying methodologies will change. We asked experts from Eurex and STOXX what this means for the segment.

A year ago, Invesco switched the underlying strategies for three US-listed ETFs that target technology themes to three STOXX indices. Since then, the ETFs have shown very strong performance as investors expect companies exposed to those themes to benefit from increasing demand in new technologies.

The STOXX US Nexus 100, STOXX US 2000, STOXX USA Titans 30 and STOXX USA 500 underlie futures as of today, expanding the possibilities for investors to trade baskets of US stocks.

Changes were announced as part of the September regular review of the DAX 50 ESG, DAX 50 ESG+, DAX 30 ESG, DAX ESG Target, DAX ESG Screened, MDAX ESG+, MDAX ESG Screened and DAX indices.

STOXX Ltd. has announced the new composition of the DAX blue-chip indices.

The STOXX World AC benchmark rose 2.6% in August, recovering from a drop of 6.5% in the month’s first three sessions. Investors forecast the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates in September.

Stocks gyrated in August, with benchmarks ending in positive territory for the month, as concern about a US economic slowdown was outweighed by optimism that interest rates will be cut this month. The STOXX World AC index rose 2.6% last month when measured in US dollars and including dividends, taking its 2024 gain to 16.4%. The STOXX Global 1800 index added 2.8% in the month.

The so-called time-weighted average price (TWAP) period employed in the calculation of the index’s daily settlement level will expand thismonth. The change should help increase liquidity in derivatives tied to VSTOXX.

STOXX Ltd. today announced the results of the regular annual review of the STOXX Blue-Chip Indices, among them the EURO STOXX 50, STOXX Europe 50, and the STOXX Eastern Europe 50 indices. All changes will be effective with the opening of European markets on September 23, 2024.

Results of the third regular quarterly review 2024 of benchmark indices will be effective September 23, 2024.
